I'm having issues playing videos. I was on Beta 0.9, but just updated to 0.12 and the issue still exists. It plays for up to a few seconds and then freezes the application. Other times video continues but audio drops out completely.

These are a mix of .mp4 and .mkv videos I have copied to the SD card. I use MX Player Pro, but have tried a few others from the play store that freeze immediately. These videos worked fine on the last ROM I was on (4.4). I tried different HW, SW, and HW+ decoders, with and without subtitles, internal memory storage, other file types, etc. No success.

Thoughts?

Otherwise running great! But without movies and tv shows, my tablet is hindered supremely!

I also play MP4 video files from the SD card. I have been using Dice Player and VLC player without any problems at all with this ROM. Have you tried playing Videos from internal storage just to see if it's an issue with the SD card? I remember reading there were SD card issues with the LG and certain ROM's in the past.

Thanks for the tips. I just tried all of the above to no avail. Dice Player says "cannot play this video" for all of my videos. VLC says a "HW acceleration error occurred," and then it fails software playback after a few seconds. I tried both SD card and internal storage. These are videos that did work on my old setup, so it shouldn't be an incompatible format.

This is frustrating!

Everything is awesome but there are somethings

First thanks too much for excellent ROM:eek: that is fast as hell and so powerful for gaming;). just i have three problem that if you can fix that , ROM going to be perfect . first is GPS that is not working for me with 20d model of gpad and second is cast screen that can not connect to lg smart tv ( I have done this with stock ROM so many times). last thing is infrared and i know that other ROMs except stock hasn't either,but if you can activate it,it will be very nice . again thanks for your fantastic rom , and it,s really the best and fastest ROM that i have ever used:angel: .

Has anyone experienced moments where the touchscreen goes crazy with ghost touches? It has happened on both of my Gpad's with the latest version. A reboot returns things to normal, but eventually it happens again.

Is the tablet plugged in at the time? That happened to me, kept constantly hitting the home button, turns out it was only when plugged in. Hasn't happened to me for ages tho.

No, the tablet is not plugged in. It seems to happen at random.. Sometimes a week or more may pass before it happens again. It happens on both my Gpad's tablets with Slim LP and CM 12, but not with Slimkat… so it must have something to do with Lollipop.
